What is Oral Surgery?
Oral surgery covers a variety of procedures designed to protect, restore, and enhance your smile. At Palouse View Dental, we perform most oral surgeries right here in our Moscow office, often with same-day convenience and comfort-focused sedation options to help you stay relaxed throughout treatment.
Our goal is to provide care that is personalized to your needs—whether it’s removing a problematic tooth, placing a dental implant, or preventing future issues with wisdom teeth.
When Do You Need Oral Surgery?
- Bone Augmentation: Insufficient bone density can make dental implant placement challenging. Our bone grafting techniques involve augmenting the jawbone with bone graft material to create a stable foundation for implants and improve overall oral health.
- Wisdom Teeth Extraction: Wisdom teeth can cause issues like overcrowding, impaction, and infection. Our oral surgeons specialize in gentle wisdom teeth extraction to minimize discomfort and promote quick recovery.
- Dental Implants: Dental implants provide a permanent solution for missing teeth, restoring both function and aesthetics to your smile. Our practice uses state-of-the-art technology and precise techniques to ensure optimal implant placement for long-lasting, natural-looking results.
Benefits of Oral Surgery
- Improved Oral Health: Treats issues like impacted teeth, infections, and jaw problems to boost overall oral health.
- Relief from Pain: Alleviates chronic dental pain from conditions such as wisdom teeth issues or TMJ disorders.
- Enhanced Functionality: Restores chewing, speaking, and overall mouth function with procedures like implants and jaw realignment.
- Cosmetic Enhancement: Improves appearance by correcting facial asymmetry, replacing missing teeth, or reshaping the jawline.
- Prevention of Further Damage: Early surgical intervention can stop problems from worsening, avoiding more extensive treatments later.
